Abstract
In a first stage of a methane conversion system, at least some methane (CH) in an input gas flow stream can be converted into Chydrocarbons, hydrogen gas (H), and aromatics to provide a first processed stream. The conversion can be direct non-oxidative methane conversion (DNMC). At least some of the aromatics can be removed from the first processed stream to provide a second processed stream. In a second stage of the methane conversion system, at least some of the Hcan be removed from the second processed stream to provide a recycle stream. The recycle stream can be returned to the first stage of the methane conversion system for further conversion of methane and removal of aromatics and Hproducts.
